Imagine my surprise
and a certain sense of sadness.

I had, for whatever reason tonight, a desire to post my thoughts. I posted some thoughts in GD, and was castigated in a pm for having done that. I posted too many "stream of consciousness" thoughts.

Sorry.

I can understand the castigators reasons (I really do), but feel slightly censored. Perhaps I should post on freedom underground? Just kidding, anyone who may be taking offense at that sentence.

For this reason, I will now blow my nose and promise not to post anything - not a damn word - for the next 6 and (sniff) 1/2 minutes.

Promise.

1. was this from a mod, or just another DUer?
Either way, it seems tacky for someone to PM you and tell you to stop posting. Hey, some of your posts even got recommendations!

Keep on posting, Mosey!! :hi:

2. Aaahhhh
it was from a long time DU'er, and he/she did have a point! I sometimes get too many thoughts flowing, and want to express them before they may be lost forever.

Tacky fits though. I rarely (read never) get pm's, and saw that one flashing at me. I thought, hey, that's cool, I have a message. Then I read it. Not cool.

thanks for the thoughts!

3. don't let one person's opinion stop you.
Seriously. I don't care how long someone's been here - that kind of thing is just plain rude. (unless, of course, it was Skinner)

You know you can alert on PM's, don't you? I'd pass it along to the admins, so they know what's going on.

4. My dear MoseyWalker!
Was that your dream thread?

Anyway, shame on whoever it was who PM'd you ...

I do stream of consciousness threads all the time, and I love doing them!

They are healthy for me to write, and I believe good for others to read and participate in!

You keep on doing this, OK?

It is good for you, and for us!



:loveya: :hug:
